Participants in this hands-on workshop will design, build and test prototypes of information communication systems that incorporate electricity and waves. This lesson is from the new middle school STC Program: MYGEN Edition of Electricity, Waves and Information Transfer. The Smithsonian Science Education Center has written this unit explicitly for the topic arrangement of the Next Generation Science Standards. Participants will be provided with the concept storyline which lays out the progression of learning and understandings that students will experience in this unit and additional resources.
